One Lap 2008: Starting the Hype

OLOA 2008 competition is pretty serious this year, including this gem in SSGT1 Small Bore:



E92 335i w/ the latest in trick suspension design from RRT in Virginia. They are serious business in building fast cars.
In the background is the BMWCCA C-Mod race car of Andy and Bryan Watts.



Adam, scared yet?

I was just reading the 335i has been plagued with overheating issues when flogged on the track. Any word on whether anyone has resolved that yet? Roundel seemed to hint at a much larger oil cooler likely fixing it.

Big oil cooler and big rad are what I've heard. Shame that it could have such problems because the motor kicks ass.

Who said you needed a good car? You should see some of the shit that's rolled up in the past. The big hit is the ~$2000+ entry fee and ~$1000-1500 in fuel/food/lodging/repairs along the 8 day trip My sister took first in class last year in a cavalier

Oh yea, when I get that 962 done OLOA will be the first sanctioned event it'll probably run in. And ya.. you bet, I'm gonna need a skinny ass co-driver that can put up with me for ~10 days straight!

I already did plenty of damage back in the day with the Avenger/Porsche and this car will CERTAINLY stir up a hornets nest with those guys to the point where I'll probably get banned from Rennlist again.

I think it's funny how all these guys come to the one lap with 4 digit power number cars and still have managed to lose to DeVia, FOUR consecutive years, in his virtually bone stock 996 Turbo. Goes to show you what a good driver in a moderately powered car can really do

OK, you've already pissed of the perennial winner: it's spelled "DaVia".
